Best Debut Female 2012 – Bollywood

Alia Bhatt - Diana Penty - Ileana D'Cruz - Esha Gupta

Alia Bhatt (Student of the Year): Alia Bhatt had a dream debut. She was launched in Karan Johar’s “Student of the Year”, even though she is the daughter of filmmaker Mahesh Bhatt and his second wife Soni Razdan. We all know that the Bhatt camp is famous for launching new faces. But this time they did not want to take any risk and put Alia in safer hands as no one makes candy floss romance better than Karan Johar. The film scored well at the box-office and also ensured her a spot in the viewers’ mind. She played the love interest of two hunks with elan.

Diana Penty (Cocktail): This beautiful model made her debut in Bollywood opposite Saif Ali Khan and Deepika Padukone in Cocktail. For her first film, she carried out her role with ease and poise. Her performance in the movie was fabulous. She has appeared in a number of advertisements, including an ad for Virgin Mobile, with Ranbir Kapoor and Genelia D’Souza. Penty was originally slated to make her Bollywood debut in 2011 with Imtiaz Ali’s Rockstar opposite Ranbir Kapoor. Unfortunately, she was replaced by Nargis Fakhri.

Ileana D’Cruz (Barfi): Ileana is a popular Telugu actress who has to her credit superhit films like “Pokiri”, “Kick” and “Nenu Naa Rakshasi”. Ileana made her Hindi debut with Anurag Basu’s directorial Barfi! , as the role of a narrator starring alongside Ranbir Kapoor and Priyanka Chopra. The response she got from the audience and critics was commendable for a debutant, making her one of the best debutant’s of the year.

Esha Gupta (Jannat 2, Raaz 3): Esha’s first film was Mahesh Bhatt’s Jannat 2 opposite Emraan Hashmi. The Bhatts wanted a girl with a bold body language and a good sex appeal. Esha was best suited for the role, as she does a good job fitting perfectly into her character. The dusky bombshell is known as the desi Angelina Jolie in the modeling world and was also considered for the second lead for “Krrish” sequel.

Yami Gautam - Huma Qureshi - Sunny Leone - Amy Jackson

Yami Gautam (Vicky Donor): Yami’s initial appearances were on Indian television commercials and soap operas like Yeh Pyar Na Hoga Kam and Chand Ke Paar Chalo. She has made her Bollywood debut with Vicky Donor where she’s cast opposite Ayushmann Khurrana. She plays the role of a Bengali girl who falls in love with a Punjabi boy. The movie was a commercial success, and has also received critical appreciation.

Huma Qureshi (Gangs Of Wasseypur, Gangs Of Wasseypur 2 and Luv Shuv Tey Chicken Khurrana): We were quite surprised when we saw Huma in Anurag Kashyap’s Gangs of Wasseypur. No one knew who Huma Qureshi was, until her fabulous performance in GOW 2. The actress left an impression on the critics as well as the audience. She was next seen in Luv Shuv Tey Chicken Khurrana, opposite Kunal Kapoor.

Sunny Leone ( Jism 2): Jism 2 ,the sequel to the 2003 film Jism , marked the debut of Indo-Canadian porn actress Sunny Leone in Bollywood. Jism 2 received mixed to negative reviews from critics.. However, Sunny Leone in the driver’s seat, coupled with a generous dose of skin show and erotica, besides an attention-grabbing title, helped in attracting the audience in the first weekend.

Amy Jackson (Ekk Deewana Tha): Making her Bollywood debut from Ekk Deewana Tha in the female lead after a successful run in Tamil Cinema is British actress and model Amy Jackson, who is also former Miss Liverpool, Miss Teen World, Miss Teen Great Britain, and Miss England runner up. The English starlet, who is making waves with her film career in India, starred opposite Prateik Babbar.

  • Ileana dcruz and diana penty are strong contenders. Personally i feel diana as best. Alia has more to give in her acting, while yami did not have much challenges in her role. Have’nt seen huma, amy and esha onscreen so i’ve no chance of voting in this.

  • Huma Qureshi is by some distance the best actress in the list. Yami and Ileana were good, but it’s the quality of their respective movies that made their performance look better.

  • ALIA bhatt…freaking crazy…?????
    For real its…ILLEANA….but since she s already experienced….with TOLLYWOOD stuff…..I am gonna go with YAMI Gautam

  • Yami….Illeana…Esha…are all aunties….and they r not first timers..thy did films outside bollywood…

    Plus…Alia has the X Factor….and CAN ACT….and dance…and has a popular fanbase….the other person who deserves it is…Diana…

  • alia freaking suczzzz…….diana was lovely,ileana 2.ithink both score on the grace card.alia…i don’t c how she even made it 2 the list!!!!

  • This Ria girl, please have a look in front of the the mirror b4 calling three extremely gorgeous women aunties.. esp Yami Gautam. For me it has to be:

    1. Yami gautam- Easily One of the most beautiful actress and of course brilliant actress..In spite of Ayushman being the lead actor,she held her own. It was impossible for any guy to take their eyes off her. Kudos to her..A future superstar for sure!!

    2. Illeana D’cruz-Superconfident debut n extremely petite n beautiful. Your heart goes out to her with the way she performed in barfi!

    3. Huma Qureshi- Hands down SEXIEST of all. She didn’t need those bikini bods to show her raw sensuality. N a perfectly natural actress. Made an impact with just one scene in her debut. That’s called as a powerful actor.

    Rest are superbly gorgeous but acting..???? A bit more refined needed..:)

  • I don’t think any of them gave a spectacular performance per se, and none of them really join the ranks of Deepika, Vidya, Anushka in terms of great debut performance that these ladies gave.

    But, if I had to choose one, it would be Ilena D’Cruz. In Barfi, she gave a truly layered performance of a girl trapped by love, society and the resulting hardships and regrets. For a debut, she was great, and stood in her own terms given that Ranbir and Priyanka were the larger, more flamboyant performances, while she had to emote her every move through those subtle eyes of being a ‘normal’ character.

  • Diana Penty!!! OMG OMG OMG!!! Lover her!! She is so cute!! And her performance in Cocktail was amazing for a debutant!! I had doubts about her before the movie, but after watching Cocktail i was amazed by her screen presence, dialogue delivery and acting in general . Here’s hoping she gets all, or at least some, Best Debutante awards; and also some good films in Bollywood!!!

  • hi,sunny its me yash i have never seen the girl like you.you are so damn hot and beautiful it was a lelvoy pleasure to meet you once in my life it would be a dream comes true for me just send a mail to my id-thanks. youre old crazy fan .yash.
